National Dam Inspection Program. Lake Louise Dam (NDS ID Number PA-558, DER ID Number 40-134), Susquehanna River Basin, Suttons Creek, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. Phase I Inspection Report
Lake Louise Dam appears to be in poor condition. Lake Louise Dam is a high hazard small size dam. The spillway design flood is in the range of 1/2 PMF to PMF. The spillway design flood was selected to be the PMF (probable maximum flood) based on downstream potential for loss of life and property damage. The spillway is capable of controlling approximately 45% of the PMF. The dam breach analysis indicated that a significant increase in the downstream potential for loss of life and property damage exists should the dam fail. Based on criteria established by the Corps of Engineers, the spillway is termed seriously inadequate. The spillway exit and entrance channels are in poor condition. The heavy vegetation creates the potential for water infiltration and made visual inspection of the embankment difficult. Lake Louise Dam is classified as an unsafe non-emergency dam.
